Biliary Atresia by Claus Petersen
Despite extensive clinical and basic research, we know very little about the aetiology and pathomechanism of biliary atresia (BA). Today, it is a matter of common sense that early diagnosis (screening programs), sequential surgical treatment (the Kasai procedure and optional liver transplantation), and thorough follow-up in paediatric liver units improve survival rates among BA patients with native livers. However, BA still remains the most frequent indication of paediatric liver transplantation in patients with an unfavourable outcome after the Kasai procedure because the survival with native liver drops below 30% over the long term. Therefore, the following aspects should be considered alongside individual health issues: first, early organ replacement is a multifactorial burden for the growing organism, and second, every patient who survives with their native liver relieves the limited availability of donor organs and benefits national health expenditures with economic savings. From that point of view, international and interdisciplinary strategies are mandatory, in as much as BA is a rare disease. Over the past several years, national and international initiatives have been established in order to improve screening, centralization, diagnosis, as well as surgical and adjuvant treatment protocols. One such initiative is the recently launched European rare diseases network rare-liver.

"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
